Question

Which value of m will create a system of parallel lines with no solution?

y=mx-6

8x-4y=12

Answer 1

Help me

Answer 2

First get the second equation in form of y=mx+b

Do you know how to do that?

Answer 3

yes

Answer 4

Okay

You should get y=2x-3

In order to get parallel lines, you need to have the same slope

[Do you know what the slope is for this equation?]

Answer 5

Yes, that is the line

Do you know what the slope is?

[Hint: It is the "m" value in the equation y=mx+b]

Answer 6

1.5 or 8

Answer 7

No no, I just gave you the equation of the line for that equation

y=2x-3 (What is the slope here)

Answer 8

2

Answer 9

Right, parallel lines have the same slope
